In brief:
Getting induction right is business critical. UK organisations are losing up to £2 billion a year in employee productivity due to inefficient induction processes and recent figures indicate 90% of staff decide whether to leave a firm within the first six months, often citing a poor induction process as a major contributing factor. With the considerable investment of time and resources into identifying and recruiting key talent, organisations really cannot afford to fall down with a sub-standard induction programme and risk an adverse effect on engagement, productivity and performance levels of a new starter’s first few months in a job.
‘On-boarding’ of new employees doesn’t at first seem a particularly strategic task. Yet making your ‘on-boarding’ and induction programme strategic requires careful planning and integration at all levels of the business. A strategic approach to induction will kick start an employee’s engagement from day one through cultural alignment, the establishment of key relationships, unlocking of potential and discretionary effort and a sense of immediate ‘belonging’. All of which result in measurably enhanced engagement, productivity and performance levels.
Induction has moved from an administrative HR process to strategic, integrated talent management – and HR is at the heart of implementing this evolvement. By understanding the needs and ensuring the strategic linkages HR can champion and facilitate the design of a scheme that cascades throughout all levels of the organisation. This interactive seminar provides key insights into the dynamics surrounding ‘on-boarding’ and will help HR and L&D professionals connect the dots in their organisations to develop a scheme that is strategic - and examine how its impact can be monitored and evaluated.
This event is CPD accredited.
